We've recently partnered with Toyota for their "Count On Corolla" campaign and I've been asked which celeb I turn to for beauty and style inspiration. And this week, I've decided to go back in time for a little vintage inspiration from decades past. My pick: Brigitte Bardot. Yes, I couldn't look like her if I tried, but there are some things from her look that I can steal for my very own like that sexy bed head hair, gorgeous kohl-lined eyes and her boho-glam style. I first fell for her beauty and style in La Parisienne — a movie she starred in from 1957 that has her playing up to that sex kitten image. Bardot not only had all of these qualities, but she also had impeccable confidence to pull it off. She's my vintage style icon.

We think its tremendous popularity is proof that the 2012 Corolla offers the ideal blend of comfort, value and safety. In it, you'll find a surprising number of high-end features, like available Display Audio system. It offers remarkable performance and fuel efficiency, plus an impressive list of standard safety features. Factor in its legendary reliability, and it's even more apparent that Corolla is the smart choice.
